Penn Retaliate X Solid Light Jigging Spin Rod The PENN Retaliate X Solid Light Jigging Spinning Rods are designed to give you perfect control over your lures. The unique Solid Spiral Armor technology uses reinforced, spiral-shaped fibers in the blank, creating a blank with unprecedented strength in a carbon rod. Thanks to the high density of the carbon, the rod is still very sensitive and with the lightweight Fuji Alconite guides it remains extremely light. The inverted guides reduce the risk of tangling and the strong backbone of this lightweight rod ensures that you are in control, not the fish.
